A former young person in Manchester United became a reporter during the promotions of Leeds when their return to the Premier League was confirmed on Monday evening after Burnley Sheffield United beat a crunch Championship collision.
The side of Daniel Farke was about to return to the top flight after their match at Elland Road on the same day, with the competition leaders Stoke 6-0, just a few hours before Burnley's test at Turf Moor.
It meant that the whites only needed Sheffield United to prevent the victory in the evening match, and Chris Wilder's side did exactly that to count itself from the automatic promotional places of the championship.
The victory of Burnley also confirmed the promotion of the Clarets back to the Premier League at the first time of asking, where Scott Parker enjoyed an excellent campaign after the departure of Vincent Kompany to Bayern Munich at the end of the last term.
The result led to sensational scenes outside Elland Road, in which fans gathered in their thousands to celebrate the performance while they loose torches, climbed buildings and deal with club singing.
In the meantime, social media described the feast of the players, in which the former Red Devil Largie Ramazani spoke with a number of his teammates with a microphone during the celebrations.
Left Junior Firpo, who was in the Premier League two years ago with Leeds, said: 'It's an incredible day. I am really happy, I just want to enjoy now. '
Harry Gray, brother of Spurs Star Archie, meanwhile shouted sarcastically: “Leeds fall apart again, Leeds falls apart.”
Ao Tanaka added: 'I am so happy. So happy. I can't find the words'
Patrick Bamford then joked: “The microphone is not an operating size.”
Ramazani was also seen dancing with sunglasses on and waved with a promotional flag, with a fan suggesting: “think we found our new Alioski.”
Alcohol seemed to have been thrown during the celebrations of the players, where Leeds shared images of the 'carnage' with their social media channels.
While the fans made their way to a balcony on Elland Road, in the meantime, to greet fans, they were met by hymns of 'Wilder is AW **** r', focused on Sheffield United United Chris Wilder. Full back Jayden Bogle was apparently seen dancing on the chants.
Manager Daniel Farke, who took over the club at the beginning of last season when they were banned from the Premier League, also greeted the crowd, with his hair apparently soaked. He danced on hymns of his name with torches that showed in the crowd.
Leeds, who were once an established part of the Premier League during the Formative Years of the Division, was forced to withstand two years away from the top flight on this occasion. Last season their promotion hopes were interrupted by a defeat in the play-off final against Southampton, which led to doubts about the future of Farke.
But this time they were not stumbled and protected promotion with two more games, and they can now prepare themselves again for life in the top flight.
Joel Piroe scored four goals in the first half against Stoke and set up an exhibition for the packed crowd that would never stop the rain of West Yorkshire to put a damper on their big day.
Their team wasn't. Against the break they were five goals, with four courtesy of Piroe, who scored the fastest hat trick in the history of Leeds. It ended six-zero, but in reality it could have been even more.
With 89 goals in 44 championship matches, they are the entertainers and now join Marcelo Bielsa's side of 2019-20 as just the second Leeds team to ensure promotion to the Premier League.
Pre -Match had called Farke everyone, from the stewards to the grounds to be with a full voice, because Leeds had 'the chance to create something very special' and for the first time to reach promotion to the Premier League with supporters – when they went up in 2020, it was during the pandemic.
They did exactly that, and the celebrations were full -time were those of dismissal, with all those involved realized that they were on the edge. After promotion was confirmed, he said: 'I am lost for words, which does not happen so often. You could see this morning that the atmosphere was great.
'94 Points in this phase of the season are incredible. The players have to celebrate, our supporters have to celebrate and we will certainly ensure that Easter Monday lasts another or two days.
'It is difficult on such an emotional day to think too much, but it was a long way. It is not easy to stabilize the ship after relegation and to deal with the lost important players and a hangover of relegation.
“I just want beer after beer, champagne after champagne and don't bother about football for a few days.”
“We were unable to spend too much money and I was also a bit jealous that some other clubs could spend money.”
Leeds is the best side in the division this season, but it has been a campaign that was not without some slip -ups.
At the end of March and the beginning of April they only won one of the seven games when their promotion mush stumbled, but they have been restored to win their last four and to get promotion to the top flight for next season.
